9/11: PRESS FOR TRUTH PART 4 OF 5

9/11: Press for Truth is a 2006 documentary film about the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States, directed by the American filmmaker Ray Nowosielski.

Approximately half of 9/11: Press for Truth follows three of the Jersey Girls (activist widows of individuals killed in the attacks) as well as other family members in their search for the truth about the attacks and subsequent government response that they believe had been hidden by the United States government and media.

The focus is particularly on efforts by the George W. Bush administration following the attacks to obstruct the establishment of an independent investigation, and traces the efforts of the 9/11 family members whose pressure finally helped to convince the administration to create the 9/11 Commission.1 It further explores the many questions about the events of 9/11 and the government's handling of the situation, and makes the point that 70 percent of the detailed questions developed by and presented to the 9/11 Commission remain unanswered.[1]

The film draws on the Complete 9/11 Timeline (a website later published as The Terror Timeline), authored under the pseudonym "Paul Thompson", for part of its narrative.

The second half of the film identifies a number of media stories suggesting various links between the hijackers, Osama bin Laden, Al Qaeda, the Taliban and the Pakistani ISI.
